Ukrainian drone strikes kill five near Moscow

Ukrainian drone attacks have killed five people and injured at least seven others in Russia, striking industrial and warehouse sites near Moscow and St Petersburg.

Moscow regional Governor Andrei Vorobyov said several fires broke out after drones hit the Novoselki industrial zone outside the capital.

“According to preliminary information, five people were killed and a further six wounded,” he said on Telegram.

A warehouse also caught fire in the attack before firefighters brought the blaze under control.

Near St Petersburg, drones damaged a warehouse facility in Krasny Bor, injuring one person, Leningrad regional Governor Alexander Drozdenko said.

The Leningrad region surrounds the city of St Petersburg but does not include it.

Russian online retailer Wildberries later said its logistics center there had caught fire as a result of the strike, but reported no casualties among its staff.

Ukraine has intensified long-range drone attacks on targets inside Russia in recent weeks, including logistics sites and warehouses.

Moscow’s regional governor says Ukrainian drones struck the Novoselki industrial zone outside the Russian capital.

Five people are reported to have been killed, with other industrial and warehouse sites near Russia’s two largest cities also hit.

Russian online retailer Wildberries says one of its facilities was among those hit and caught fire as a result.

Meanwhile, four people have been killed in a mysterious shooting in the Russian-controlled Crimean city of Sevastopol, according to a Moscow-installed official.
